Chapter 1122: Lynx's Plea for Help

In the snow.

The lynx’s silhouette flickered like a white ghost in the dark forest.

If viewed with the naked eye, it would be difficult for any creature to lock onto the lynx’s shadow.

But unfortunately, the wolves track their prey by scent.

They are completely unaffected.

Moreover, the Siberian Plain Wolf has a stronger adaptation to snow, after all, their domesticated descendants are the famous sled dogs — Huskies.

In the snow chase, they won’t be easily shaken off by the lynx.

At this moment, the wolf pack is pursuing the lynx in a formation similar to an arrowhead, with the four strongest members of the pack at the front, and the other wolf pack members lining up behind, chasing the group through the path opened by the front members.

Once the front members trap the prey, the members at the back will swarm in.

This is a very classic but highly effective hunting method.

The lynx can’t afford to worry about much at this moment; its fleeing has already exhausted its strength and energy.

However, the lynx’s only relief is that its position isn’t too far from Wuwu and Chen Wen.

If it runs with full force, it won’t take long to find Wuwu.

But the lynx doesn’t head towards Wuwu; the many days spent together have made it realize that Wuwu is essentially a tamed beast, not a wild animal.

Rashly leading the wolf pack over would only hurt Wuwu, and the two of them can’t deal with the wolves.

Now, it must seek out Chen Wen!

Its time with Chen Wen has made the lynx realize that Chen Wen’s power far exceeds its imagination.

So, seeking Chen Wen’s help!

With this idea in mind, the lynx dashed towards Chen Wen’s main camp.

…

Over at the main camp.

Chen Wen sat up.

He looked somewhat surprised at the system interface. For some time now, the system has been malfunctioning, with the Animal Friends section flickering constantly.

This directly woke Chen Wen up.

He opened the Animal Friends section and found one of the animal’s names continuously flashing.

What’s going on here?

Chen Wen encountered this kind of situation for the first time; he felt quite helpless with this system that lacked a manual.

This situation could only be guessed.

Chen Wen took a look and found the flashing name was Eurasian Lynx (Albinism), which means it was the lynx he recently tamed.

Could it be that something is wrong with the lynx?

Thinking this, Chen Wen directly activated Shared Vision to check on the lynx’s situation.

But upon checking, Chen Wen found the problem.

The lynx’s view was shaking, and the scenery in front was rapidly fading backward.

How come it’s running?

And based on the running direction, it seems to be heading towards the camp!

Chen Wen sat up with a start, alarming all the animals inside the shelter.

“What’s wrong? Is there another issue?”

Golden Eagle sat up groggily and asked.

Chen Wen nodded: “It seems there’s a problem with the lynx; you three stay inside, King Kong and Calabash, you two come with me, let’s go check it out, the lynx is almost here!”

Upon hearing this, the two wolf minks hurriedly climbed up from the ground; they could sense the urgency in Chen Wen’s voice.

Seems like something’s wrong!

King Kong thought, glanced at Calabash, and whispered: “Don’t run around later, follow me.”

Calabash nodded nervously.

Meanwhile, Chen Wen had already taken out his spear, dressed properly, opened the shelter’s door, and went out.

King Kong and Calabash immediately followed.

In the face of danger, King Kong remained reliable, quickly adopting a fierce posture as soon as he exited.

Chen Wen shouted loudly: “Did you sense anything?”

King Kong nodded, responding: “There’s a beast approaching!”

While the two were conversing, the perceptive Calabash immediately said: “There, in the north!”

Catching Calabash’s words, Chen Wen looked towards the north, and sure enough, he saw a white shadow rapidly approaching.

“Over here!”

Chen Wen shouted, recognizing the white shadow as the White Lynx.

Upon hearing Chen Wen’s call, the lynx made a quick decision and used its last strength to rush over to Chen Wen’s side.

Chen Wen took a few steps forward and scooped up the exhausted White Lynx.

He noticed the lynx’s wound on its foreleg and immediately placed his hand over the lynx’s body—[Animal Doctor]’s blessing instantly covered the lynx’s wound.

No time to carefully treat the White Lynx’s wound.

Chen Wen quickly instructed: “Calabash, take the White Lynx into the shelter, don’t come out!”

Hearing this, Calabash came to the White Lynx’s side, motioned for it to follow, and the two beasts quickly slipped into the shelter, closing the door behind them.

Chen Wen glanced at the system, and the blessing to the White Lynx granted him an extraction opportunity.

Looking at the system prompt, Chen Wen quickly selected an entry.

[Nightwalker (Purple): Enhances nighttime activity capabilities; when operating in darkness, speed increases, and perception ability gains a comprehensive boost]

Not a bad entry.

Chen Wen thought, rapidly closing the system, then looking towards the path the lynx had taken to come here.

By this time, the pursuers chasing the lynx had already appeared.

Chen Wen kept a tight eye on the green eyes revealed in the darkness, his heart sinking: “Siberian Plain Wolf!”

Upon hearing Chen Wen’s words, Wolf Mink King Kong showed no fear: “Whatever plain wolf or highland wolf, in front of us, they’re just dead wolves! Chen Wen, what do we do?”

“Don’t rush.”

Chen Wen took a deep breath, glaring at the approaching wolf pack in the distance: “I’ll see if I can scare them away; if we really fight, you and I taking on such a pack, surely we’ll get hurt.”

King Kong grunted, then stared at the wolf closest to it, baring its teeth and letting out a threatening growl.

The wolf pack halted about thirty meters from Chen Wen.

It seemed they realized the man and his wolf mink weren’t easy to provoke.

A particularly strong plain wolf stepped to the forefront of the group, tightly surrounded by its packmates, and they began to howl in a threatening manner.

The howls were loud, alerting the others.

Roland reacted quickly; carrying his bow and arrow, he rushed out without even fully dressed.

Roland asked loudly while putting on his coat: “What happened! Where’s Chen Wen?”

Hua Yun was the second to come out.

She held a burning torch in her hand, and upon exiting, Hua Yun immediately raised the torch and headed to Chen Wen’s side.

“Don’t get too close!”

Chen Wen’s warning sounded: “Step back a bit, equip your bow and arrow, leave the torch, we have a pack of wolves at the camp!”

Wolves!

The name made Hua Yun’s hand tremble slightly, but she quickly wrestled free from her fear.

Hua Yun planted the torch in the snow near Chen Wen and quickly backed away.

The wind and snow were strong at this time, the flame flickered, on the verge of extinguishing.

No time for detailed preparations, Chen Wen quickly stepped in front of the torch, letting its light cast his shadow larger.

Then, Chen Wen roared fiercely, fully activating the entries [Mountain Lord] and [Tiger Power].

An indescribable aura erupted forth.

Behind him, Hua Yun’s body jolted at Chen Wen’s roar, and terror instantly appeared in her eyes.

Roland’s legs also went weak, nearly causing him to fall.

Fred, who had just emerged, lowered his head, half-kneeling on the ground.

Adam and Gaston both had their hands tremble while holding their weapons, almost dropping them.

Fortunately, they were rational humans, aware that Chen Wen was intimidating the wolf pack.

Swiftly regaining their composure, they acted as if nothing had happened.

But the wolf pack ahead of Chen Wen wasn’t as rational.

Under Chen Wen’s intimidation, the wolf pack erupted instantly.
